General Manager – Incar Installations (National Expansion & Operations Focus)

Location: Wollongong, NSW
Employment Type: Full-Time
Salary: $200K Package
Sector: Automotive Services / Mobility Modifications / National Operations

About Us
Incar Installations is a highly specialised division of Bears Auto Group, a leading automotive service network operating across NSW, VIC, QLD, and ACT. Since 1985, we’ve delivered expert solutions in:

Vehicle mobility modifications (NDIS-registered)

Premium car audio installations

Auto electrical services and ADAS calibrations

Air conditioning, child safety restraints, and more

As we scale nationally, we’re seeking an experienced General Manager to lead the next phase of growth, innovation, and service excellence.

The Role
This is a senior leadership opportunity to oversee operations, drive strategic expansion, and scale a multifaceted automotive business with national reach.

As General Manager of the Incar Division, you will be responsible for both the high-level strategic direction and the day-to-day execution of operations across all Incar Installations business lines. This includes managing existing operations, improving internal systems, developing new service offerings, rolling out fixed and mobile service units across the country, and expanding our footprint in both private and government-regulated (NDIS) markets.

You’ll be directly responsible for leading cross-functional teams including operations, technical staff, business development, administration, and marketing. You’ll coordinate closely with the Directors and COO to implement national strategy while ensuring local success at the ground level. From developing performance reporting frameworks and managing state-specific compliance, to mentoring division leads and implementing customer acquisition campaigns—this role demands a well-rounded and proactive leader.

You will also work collaboratively with equipment suppliers, referrers (such as OTs), and major insurance companies to secure long-term partnerships. In addition, you’ll ensure all services—whether delivered from a fixed site or mobile van—meet strict quality, safety, and customer satisfaction standards. A deep understanding of both automotive service delivery and the complexity of the NDIS landscape is essential.

The role is hands-on, fast-paced, and perfect for someone who thrives in a high-accountability environment where they can directly influence the direction, performance, and growth trajectory of a nationally expanding brand.

A key part of the role will also include onboarding and supporting technicians in new regions as mobile services launch. You’ll ensure every van is staffed by skilled, well-trained technicians and implement an incentive and bonus framework to motivate local ownership of results. Each mobile unit should be empowered to drive its own sales, hit revenue targets, and exceed customer satisfaction benchmarks, creating a performance-driven culture that scales with the business.
